O Son of man!  My eternity is My creation, I have created it for thee.  Make it the garment of thy temple.  My unity is My handiwork; I have wrought it for thee; clothe thyself therewith, that thou mayest be to all eternity the revelation of My everlasting being.

“65:  O Son of man!  My majesty is My gift to thee, and My grandeur...”

O Son of man!  My majesty is My gift to thee, and My grandeur the token of My mercy unto thee.  That which beseemeth Me none shall understand, nor can anyone recount.  Verily, I have preserved it in My hidden storehouses and in the treasuries of My command, as a sign of My loving-kindness unto My servants and My mercy unto My people.

“66:  O children of the divine and invisible essence!...”

O children of the divine and invisible essence!  Ye shall be hindered from loving Me and souls shall be perturbed as they make mention of Me.  For minds cannot grasp Me nor hearts contain Me.

“67:  O Son of beauty!  By My spirit and by My favor!  By My mercy and...”

O Son of beauty!  By My spirit and by My favor!  By My mercy and by My beauty!  All that I have revealed unto thee with the tongue of power, and have written for thee with the pen of might, hath been in accordance with thy capacity and understanding, not with My state and the melody of My voice.

“68:  O children of men!  Know ye not why We created you all from the...”

O children of men!  Know ye not why We created you all from the same dust?  That no one should exalt himself over the other.  Ponder at all times in your hearts how ye were created.  Since We have created you all from one same substance it is incumbent on you to be even as one soul, to walk with the same feet, eat with the same mouth and dwell in the same land, that from your inmost being, by your deeds and actions, the signs of oneness and the essence of detachment may be made manifest.  Such is My counsel to you, O concourse of light!  Heed ye this counsel that ye may obtain the fruit of holiness from the tree of wondrous glory.

“69:  O ye Sons of spirit!  Ye are My treasury, for in you I have treasured the...”

O ye Sons of spirit!  Ye are My treasury, for in you I have treasured the pearls of My mysteries and the gems of My knowledge.  Guard them from the strangers amidst My servants and from the ungodly amongst My people.

“70:  O Son of him that stood by his own entity in the kingdom of his self!...”

O Son of him that stood by his own entity in the kingdom of his self!  Know thou, that I have wafted unto thee all the fragrances of holiness, have fully revealed to thee My word, have perfected through thee My bounty and have desired for thee that which I have desired for My Self.  Be then content with My pleasure and thankful unto Me.
